To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JAMES M. HARPER, of El Paso, in the county of Woodford and State of Illinois, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Stove-Handles; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full,

clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon Figure l of the dra'wingsis a representation of a stove, showing my handle applied.

My invention relates to a stove attachment or handle by means of which a stove, either hot or cold, may be transported from one room or place to another with convenience and dispatch; and the novelty consists .in the construction and arrangement of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter set forth, and pointed out in the claim.

In carrying out my invention, two or more hooks are cast on the stove-surface in convenient places, and those hooks are adapted to receive handles which engage with such hooks, and afford means for convenient handling.

Sockets or the like may be cast in the stove, if desired, and suitable handles provided without departing from the principle of my invention.

Referring to the drawing, A A represent the hooks, each having a curved leaf, a, both turned in the same direction, and each having a bearing, a. The leaf receives the shank b of the handle B, and the hook b rests in the bearing a.

By this construction the handles, when in JAMES M. HARPER.
